As a lazy worker who lacked ambition, Shu Shu never expected to die while casually watching a show and transmigrate into the spirit beast of the female lead in a fantasy novel she had just finished...
"Buying information."
As a figure entered Qinghong Pavilion and approached the counter, a childish voice, yet trying hard to appear mature, reached everyone's ears.
Such a soft, sweet voice startled both the staff member standing behind the counter and the young male cultivator casually leaning against it, and they all looked towards the source of the voice.
When they finally saw the tall figure hidden beneath the black robe and recalled the voice they had just heard, the two exchanged a glance and shivered simultaneously.
Especially the male cultivator leaning against the counter, who was none other than Xie Anran, the young master of Qinghong Pavilion, had a look of utter disbelief on his face.
The body of a clearly strong young man has the voice of a baby, which is absolutely mind-blowing!
Therefore, Jie Anran really couldn't help but look Lu Li up and down several times. She felt that his figure was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't recognize who he was.
Of course, because of the black robe, he did not discover the presence of the millet.
Lu Li, who was being scrutinized, realized upon seeing the two's stunned expressions that it seemed somewhat inappropriate for him to ask his junior sister to speak up.
But since he had already done it, he could only continue down the wrong path.
At his telepathic signal, a soft, babyish voice rang out again, tinged with obvious confusion: "Huh, what's wrong? Has Qinghong Pavilion stopped selling information?"
Hearing that soft, sweet voice again, the staff behind the counter finally snapped out of their daze, barely suppressing their chapped faces, and quickly replied, "Selling, selling, selling! This way, fellow Daoist, please."
After saying that, he walked out from behind the counter and began to lead the way. Seeing this, Lu Li quickly followed.
"So, this tall man is a genuine baby!"
Until the figure in front of her completely disappeared from sight, Jie Anran patted her chest with a sigh and muttered to herself.
After muttering to himself, he quickly left. He was going to tell Lu Li this explosive news. He didn't believe that Lu Li could resist replying to him, given how outrageous this matter was.
Thinking of this, Jie Anran didn't even wait to return to her room before taking out her communication jade tablet and explaining the matter at length before sending it to Lu Li.
Unbeknownst to him, Lu Li, who had just brushed past him, felt the vibration of the spatial communication jade tablet, a vibration that was utterly indescribable.
Fortunately, he didn't have to ramble on for long before a waiter led him to his room.
After spending another sum of spirit stones to obtain the latest information on the Blazing Light Volcano, Lu Li left the Ghost Market almost immediately.
After skillfully finding a quiet, secluded corner, Lu Li removed his disguise, picked up Shushu who had transformed back into human form, and left Baizhang City, heading towards the Fiery Light Volcano.
Perhaps due to the leak of information about the Great Power's legacy, there are a huge number of people entering the Blazing Light Volcano.
Some people were traveling in groups, while others were traveling alone, but none of them were carrying a baby like Lu Li.
As a result, their combination of senior and junior disciples was quite eye-catching along the way, and everyone they met would look at them curiously.
Finally, with no other option, the senior and junior disciples found a place to remove their makeup, and Shushu transformed back into his spirit rat form.
They changed direction and entered the mountain again, which relieved them of the feeling of being the center of attention. The fellow disciples also made steady progress according to plan.
Before long, they left the main group behind and truly entered the outer perimeter of the Fiery Volcano.
The reason why it is called the Lieguang Volcano is because it is a dangerous area composed of hundreds of volcanoes, covering an area of tens of thousands of miles.
Within the volcanic cluster, there are not only dormant extinct volcanoes, but also countless active volcanoes that erupt from time to time.
Encountering a small volcanic eruption is fine, but if you encounter a large volcanic eruption, even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator may not be able to leave unharmed.
Furthermore, there are various fire-type spirit beasts, flame beasts, fire spirits, and other life-harvesting creatures living in the volcano, which makes Fiery Light Volcano one of the two most dangerous places on the Rainy Continent.
However, danger is always accompanied by opportunity. The Fiery Volcano is home to a large number of fire-type spiritual plants, and even the rocks left after the volcanic eruption are excellent materials for refining weapons.
There is also the Fire Spirit, which many alchemists and weapon refiners dream of.
All of this makes people flock to the Fiery Light Volcano even though they know it is fraught with danger, and treasure hunters have never stopped coming.
Of course, there are also various types of highway robbers who make a living by robbing.
Sure enough, Shushu and Luli had only broken away from the main group and hadn't walked far inside when they ran into them.
Looking at the group of bandits riding fire beasts opposite him, who were extremely arrogant, Shushu glanced at their cultivation levels. Very good, the highest being the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.
So without thinking, Shushu decisively made her move, heading towards a Golden Core cultivator in the early stages next to him, who was her true opponent.
As for the mid-stage Golden Core cultivator and the others, they're naturally left to her senior brother. Shushu is very self-aware; she's not going to be foolish enough to try and outmaneuver him.
Lu Li was very satisfied with this. He separated a wisp of his divine sense to keep an eye on his junior sister's situation and joined the fight himself. Soon, the two sides were locked in a fierce battle.
The opponent chosen by the glutinous rice ball initially thought that the one who dared to provoke him was a high-level spirit beast.
When he realized that the little rat was just a small spirit mouse, he couldn't help but feel disdainful, and his attitude towards the battle became lax. He clearly didn't think that a spirit pet was worth his effort.
Then, this guy got a real lesson from the potato.
The sorghum claws swiftly scratched at him, leaving large and small bloody scratches all over his body. The deepest scratch was even deep enough to expose the bone.
Now, the cultivator dared not underestimate his opponent. He took his broadsword and began to chop at the millet and sweet potato.
Unfortunately, the yam was too agile and small. He exhausted most of his spiritual power and still couldn't get close to the yam. Instead, he ended up with many more wounds on his body and face.
Seeing this, he simply put away his broadsword and used his wood-elemental spiritual power to condense it into a whip, attempting to bind or whip the glutinous rice ball away.
But Shushu wasn't one to be trifled with. He immediately condensed a rope of fire elemental energy, wrapped it around the wooden whip, and soon the whip was covered in flames and began to burn.
The male cultivator couldn't believe that a small spirit mouse could destroy his spirit whip while desperately channeling spiritual energy into it in an attempt to retaliate.
However, it had no effect whatsoever, and in the end, his spiritual whip dissipated.
What alarmed him most was that his teammates had all been killed by the male cultivator in such a short time, and the male cultivator was now watching him with a leisurely air.
Even though the other person's face was expressionless, it still gave him a sudden chill.
Knowing he had met his match, he turned to run away, but instead ran into a spiritual energy shield, clearly indicating that his escape route had been blocked.
Seeing this, he knew he had no way out today. Without much hesitation, he threw several unknown small black balls at the potato while detonating himself. He was going to self-destruct.
